T-Ball:Game One

Being three is so hard. And tiring, especially when forced to play a very intense game of t-ball.
Of course I video'ed one inning and that's it. I refuse to do more, until Jack's first game. There was this family in my hometown who videoed every inning of every game they ever played. I wonder if they go back and watch it. How boring.

So here is Nate, or as his dad the coach calls him, "No Effort Nate". He's in the foreground sitting. Because it is just too much effort to stand up and play ball.



Waiting his turn to bat. Hey, at least he was watching the batter.

Coach dad prepares Nate to hit a home run.
Bam! It's hysterical how you keep having to remind these kids to run. And then, once hey get that down it becomes strategery to help them go the right way.

Nate takes a base. The 2nd basewoman there didn't even wear a glove. Look how exhausted he is. As I said, it was pretty intense.

Just.....can't....make....it....to.....third......
Am.....I......there....yet?
Nate is an expert fielder. Look how he keeps his eye on the game and the ball at all times!

He's playing third. He actually did okay, because he wouldn't share the base with a runner. Too bad in t-ball there are really no outs. He's just like a mini Ron Santo...only with legs.

Do you see the effort one has to put out in this stinkin' game?

Tomorrow is team picture day. Jack's games start on the Saturday after the 4th. Hopefully there will be a bit more action from our family's standpoint.
